PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX callback function (ndis.h)

NDIS calls a protocol driver's ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx function to complete a close adapter operation for which the NdisCloseAdapterEx function returned NDIS_STATUS_PENDING.

Note  You must declare the function by using the PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX type. For more information, see the following Examples section.
 

Syntax

PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx;

void ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx(
  [in] NDIS_HANDLE ProtocolBindingContext
)
{...}

Parameters

[in] ProtocolBindingContext

A handle to a context area allocated by the protocol driver. The protocol driver maintains the per-binding context information in this context area. The driver supplied this handle to NDIS when the driver called the NdisOpenAdapterEx function.

Return value

None

Remarks

ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx is a required function.

If ProtocolUnbindAdapterEx is waiting for NDIS to call ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx, this function can simply indicate that it has been called and return (for example, it updates the ProtocolBindingContext context area). This allows the ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx function to complete the unbind operation.

After the protocol driver calls the NdisCloseAdapterEx function, the NdisBindingHandle handle that the NdisOpenAdapterEx function returned is no longer valid. Therefore, ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx cannot call any NdisXxx functions that require this handle as a parameter.

If the ProtocolUnbindAdapterEx function has not already done so, ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx can release the resources that the protocol driver allocated for per-binding network I/O operations.

If ProtocolUnbindAdapterEx returned NDIS_STATUS_PENDING and saved the UnbindContext handle in the context area at ProtocolBindingContext, ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx can call the NdisCompleteUnbindAdapterEx function to complete the unbinding operation. Consequently, ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx should not release the context area until after it calls NdisCompleteUnbindAdapterEx.

NDIS calls ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx at IRQL = PASSIVE_LEVEL.

Examples

To define a ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx function, you must first provide a function declaration that identifies the type of function you're defining. Windows provides a set of function types for drivers. Declaring a function using the function types helps Code Analysis for Drivers, Static Driver Verifier (SDV), and other verification tools find errors, and it's a requirement for writing drivers for the Windows operating system.

For example, to define a ProtocolCloseAdapterCompleteEx function that is named "MyCloseAdapterCompleteEx", use the PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX type as shown in this code example:

PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX MyCloseAdapterCompleteEx;

Then, implement your function as follows:

_Use_decl_annotations_
VOID
 MyCloseAdapterCompleteEx(
    NDIS_HANDLE  ProtocolBindingContext
    )
  {...}

The PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX function type is defined in the Ndis.h header file. To more accurately identify errors when you run the code analysis tools, be sure to add the Use_decl_annotations annotation to your function definition. The Use_decl_annotations annotation ensures that the annotations that are applied to the PROTOCOL_CLOSE_ADAPTER_COMPLETE_EX function type in the header file are used. For more information about the requirements for function declarations, see Declaring Functions by Using Function Role Types for NDIS Drivers.

For information about Use_decl_annotations, see Annotating Function Behavior.
